Apologies for the event promotion here but if you're looking for a good excuse to see this, Landmarks Association's Urbanites group is doing a free happy hour and tour on Wednesday, Jan 16th at 6:00 pm. Not sure what the tour will entail but we'll start with a happy hour and do some form of a talk/tour from hotel management. If you'd like to have dinner at Union 30 afterwards, you can call them and add your name to our reservation. I haven't called yet but I imagine they'll have some kind of "Urbanites" list started.

Good stuff. I stayed at one of the Gill's hotels up in Davenport last year, and it was a unique experience (and dog friendly!). I'm sure visitors to this place will have fond memories as well. Unique hotels with local flavor are just so much more enjoyable than the big chains.
